Chapter 61
After Mang Mao made arrangements, he walked to the backyard. Two concubines waiting at the door of the side room opened the door to welcome him in, and they themselves followed.
Mang Yin first brought a jar of sake and drank it for the two gentlemen, and then went to the kitchen behind to order a meal. Mang Hai and the other three unloaded the car, went back to their rooms to change clothes, and then came to the hall. They saw Mang Yin busy back and forth.
, came up together to help. The four brothers worked together to move the food into the Nuan Pavilion. They greeted the two gentlemen first, and then they took their seats in order. Mang Yin offered wine to persuade, and the two gentlemen offered wine one after another. After the ceremony, everyone
Lift chopsticks.
Before they started eating, Mang Hai was the first to be unable to bear it and asked, "I've been waiting all the way and finally got home. I want to ask you, sir, what were you talking about in front of the palace?"
Mang Yin shouted: "It's so unreasonable. Who said something in front of the palace?"
Mang Hai was choked up and said in a coquettish voice: "How do I remember what I said? Just tell me what my father wants to do and what I want to do!"
Mang Yin praised: "This is my duty as a disciple!" After saying this, he looked at Mr. Cheyou who was sitting in the upper seat. Mr. Cheyou snorted and said: "It's just a matter for discussion at night, do you remember?
"
Manghai said: "Follow your elder brother out of the city and lead the army to fight Qin."
Mr. Cheyou said: "You can teach me!" He said, his eyes only staring at the food on the table, his hands constantly moving between the plates, showing no appearance. Then he followed a ball of food dipped in sauce.
When the millet food entered his mouth, he also stopped talking, as if the few words he just answered were just free time.
Mang Yin felt helpless and had no choice but to look at Mr. Hu Zhong again. Mr. Hu Zhong had no choice but to put down his food, took a sip of sake, cupped his hands and said, "Master, do you still have any doubts?"
Mang Hai said: "What doubts there are, everything is unclear! Oh, may I ask, sir, what trouble did Brother Shen's jade pendant cause?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone was shocked. Even Mr. Che You stopped his busy hands. Mang Yin said: "You are too worried!"
Mang Chen pondered for a moment and said: "This matter has been accumulating in my mind. Is there something wrong after all? Since Brother Zhong asked, it's better to explain! It's just a suspicion, nothing serious."
Mang Yin saw him and said, "In that case, I'd like to ask Mr. Hu Zhong."
Hu Zhong carefully considered his words and said authentically: "Most of the beautiful jade in the world came from Yan, Qin and Kunlun. Prince Ji's jade cover came from Qin. Although he came from the right way, the Qin and Wei are currently at odds, and it is inevitable to be suspicious of melons and plums. Respected father, I pay homage to the general before the battle.
, Mr. Ji wears Qin jade for fear of depressing the morale of the army. This is also a sign of caution."
Mang Hai heard this and said: "That's it, I understand. I asked Shen brother why he doesn't hang it outside his belt when he has a jade pendant, but hide it inside his lapel to cover his ears!"
Mang Yin quickly interrupted: "Since I know the relationship between this matter, I will not mention it from now on." He said: "Just now, my father ordered Yin and Mr. Hu Zhong to transport grain to Chenliu..." Before he finished speaking, there was another uproar.
Mang Chen said: "My father went out to battle for the first time and sent people to Chenliu to collect food. Why did he ask my uncle to go out of the city to transport food?"
Mang Yin said: "When we were urging for food a few days ago, Daliang was peaceful inside and outside, and the food was not in danger. Now that Daliang is under fire, I cannot deal with it in a normal manner, so I sent Yin out of the city and followed the camera. I was afraid that Yin was not secret, so I asked Mr. Hu Zhong
Help.”
Hu Zhong hurriedly said: "Who do you think you dare to say this? After leaving the city, I will only obey the orders of the young master." So the two of them bowed and thanked each other again.
After the two of them had finished their rituals, Mang Chen said, "Brother Shen has left, and my uncle has left again. My brothers have left and two of them have left. What should happen at home?"
Mang Yin said: "My father's order was unexpected, and I didn't say anything about it. But Yin thought about it, and worshiped the general that day, and all the brothers will have a good life and support. The matters discussed in and outside Daliang in the night will be different. What exactly will happen, suddenly difficult
Discuss. But I will obey my father’s orders and sacrifice my life to follow him!”
Mang Chen said: "Although my brother lives in a dangerous city, he is actually as trapped as a mountain. My uncle goes out of the city to transport food, and seems to be out of danger, but in fact he is as dangerous as eggs. I hope you will check it out."
Mang Yin said: "Why did Brother Chen say this?"
Mang Chen said: "The Qin army is coming from afar. It cannot be safe unless it has all the food stored up. It must dig out the courtyard and sweep holes. How can my uncle's grain cart be safe?"
Mang Yin said: "Escape or run away, just adapt to circumstances."
Mangchen said again: "Chenliu is a small town, where my family's granary is located. If it is lost, the Mang family will lose its roots; if it is guarded, it is only a small town. How can it serve as the tiger and wolf division of the Qin army?"
Mang Yin said: "Although it is said that forewarning will lead to success, failure to forewarn will lead to failure. However, Yin is not stupid enough to know all the opportunities for war. But he can do his best to ensure the destiny of heaven. Fortunately, Mr. Hu Zhong will accompany him, and he will be able to turn danger into misfortune.
Brother, there is no need to worry. However, in Daliang City, although soldiers and generals have gathered together and food has been accumulated for several years, there are many old nobles and relatives. There are many constraints in the city defense. It is difficult to guarantee the best of our strength when fighting in front of the formation. This is the only hope for all my brothers.
Wu Mang's family has been in Wei for twenty years, and its foundation lies in this, and it cannot be abandoned once."
The three brothers all said politely: "That's right!"
Mangchen didn't let go and asked again: "Brother is out of the city, what do you need my brother to do in the city?"
Mang Yin turned to Mr. Hu Zhong and said: "Mr. Yin and Yu are going out of the city. How should I behave? I want you to teach me!"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "The first task is to intercept the grain truck. After leaving the city, we should take the lead Chenliu on the east road. If the grain is not lucky, everything will stop. If the grain has been shipped out, Chenliu's chief will know where it is. Therefore
If you ride with him, you will become a commoner!"
Mang Yin said: "How about taking the south road first and then turning to the east road? Qin Congnan"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "There are three things you must not do if you take the southern route first. The southern route is so divergent that it is difficult to encounter it unexpectedly. The Qin army is coming from the south. If we take the southern route, we will inevitably encounter it. If we pursue from Chenliu, we will not encounter Qin.
The second reason is: when the Qin people enter the pass, Chen Liuru knows that they must take the east road. The third reason is that I thought it would be convenient to take the east road."
Mang Yin said: "Sir, I have left no trace, and Yin Jin will be taught."
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "My lord ordered us two to leave the city in scholar uniforms, but I thought it was impossible! When Daliang was in danger, the scholars did not go to the national disaster and left the city instead. This is absolutely unreasonable!"
Mang Yin said: "In my opinion, sir, it's better to wear short brown clothes when leaving the city?"
Mr. Hu Zhong said: "In my opinion, it is best for us to travel as merchants. First, when Daliang is surrounded, it is the time when merchants are chasing profits; second, if there is a chariot, it is not appropriate to wear short brown clothes; third, if we encounter
In emergencies, merchants can do things expediently. If there are three things like this, please help me solve them!"
Mang Yin said: "Sir, please open the door. Yin has no objection."
Mr. Che You suddenly said: "What will the eldest son say when he meets Captain Daliang?"
Mang Yin said: "My father has ordered Brother Shen to report to Captain Daliang. We are short of food at home, so we have to go out to the city to collect food. When I see Lieutenant Daliang, I will have nothing to say."
Mr. Cheyou snorted again and said: "When his father pays homage to the general, his son immediately goes out of the city to collect food. How can this be done in the world? The king stood in the temple, holding an ax and ax, and said, from now on to heaven, the general is in charge...only food and fodder.
It’s not enough for the ears. Wouldn’t it make the world laugh!”
Mang Yin said: "Yin is stupid and has not considered this. What will he do?"
Mr. Cheyou said: "If you get the tiger talisman before leaving, you can control the civilian army outside the city, and you will be a commoner."
Mang Yin said: "How to get it?"
Mr. Cheyou said: "Although I have to pay my respects to the general tomorrow, I would rather not send him today! The eldest son rushes to the Prime Minister of Wei and reports to Ming Dynasty that he should lead the civilian army outside the city. When Captain Daliang leaves the city, wouldn't it be cheap?"
Mang Yin said: "How can we solve the problem that Brother Shen faces?"
Mr. Cheyou said: "Soldiers are deceitful, how can they predict it? Mr. Ji only rumored that the eldest son and Mr. Hu Zhong were going to Daliang Wei's Mansion. What they were doing should be kept secret. False words to encourage food supply should be kept secret!"
